Checking out whether or not a Nineties Toyota Pickup or a Lamborghini Huracán is quicker does not sound like onerous work. However most Toyota Pickups do not have 900 horsepower. The one on this new video from Hoonigan does.

It additionally has a two-speed racing transmission, drag radials, a bed-mounted gasoline cell, a 6.0-liter V-8, and 300 fewer kilos to lug round than its competitors. However because the 3800-pound weight determine betrays, the Huracán is not inventory, both. Its 5.2-liter V-10 has been fitted with twin turbos and customized ECUs, boosting most output to 1500 hp. And provided that it is mid-engine with all-wheel drive, the Huracán has some appreciable benefits over the Pickup.

Sadly, it is not absolutely sorted. Within the first run, the Huracán goes into “Gasoline Security” mode, reducing energy and giving the Pickup an opportunity to catch up and run previous it. On the second run, the Pickup driver has to raise to keep away from spinning out. In truth, all through the video he is preventing the fixed side-to-side motions of the Pickup because it searches for grip. Finally, they each get good runs, however there’s by no means an ideal race between them.

Even nonetheless, it is enjoyable to observe because the Huracán rockets off down the runway after which abruptly cuts gasoline. The Toyota, sliding down the runway at insane speeds, is hilarious to have a look at on each run. And each are good examples of the last word fact of modifying a automotive: Massive energy is rather a lot much less helpful if the automotive is not set as much as deal with it.
